2025-26 Season Preview: Three Key Positions

The roster is set and the Washington Capitals’ 51st season is just over 24 hours away…so what are some key positions to keep an eye on for the Caps that will ultimately determine how successful this season will be?

Rink Roundtable: Previewing the 2025-26 Season

It’s that time again! The 2025-26 season is mere hours away, and we are ready to usher in the new campaign for the Capitals…but before the puck drops, we talk about the team, where it’s at, and where it’s going!

Capitals vs Bruins: How the Game Was Lost

The Caps officially kicked off the 2025-26 season last night against the Bruins. Unfortunately, it didn’t exactly go to plan – and their struggles with the extra man seem to have followed them into the new season.

Capitals @ Islanders Recap: Protas Leads Caps in 4-2 Win

The Caps landed in the Empire State looking to get back in the win column after a disappointing season opener earlier this week. Their first stop was Long Island to take on the Islanders, a team they’ve had a lot of success against in recent years but which got the last laugh last time these two tangled.
